- Let X1,X2,.. be a sequence of k-dimensional random vectors
- converging in distribution to a random vector X.
- Let A1,A2,.. be any sequence of k-dim. closed spheres.
- Does anybody know sufficient conditions to show
- Pn(Xn in An)=P(X in An) + o(1)?
- Remark: the usual theorems state only
- Pn(Xn in A)=P(X in A) + o(1) for all P-continuity sets A.
- In particular what happens if X is N(0,F) with singular F?
-
- Thanks in advance!
